"“My stomach clock just went off!” thinks Snoopy as he lies on top of his doghouse. <br> <br> Snoopy turns over on to his stomach leaning his head over the edge of the roof, looking down at his dog dish as he thinks, “I knew it.. Empty!” <br> <br> Snoopy is carrying his dog dish in his mouth as he walks along. <br> <br> Charlie Brown and Violet are standing talking as Snoopy sits in front of them, Charlie Brown says, “Good Grief, Is it your suppertime already? Well, wait just a minute, and I’ll fix it…” <br> <br> Charlie Brown turns back to Violet and says, “ So, as I was saying, there was this good cowboy, see, and..” Snoopy has stood up and put the dog dish on his foot. <br> <br> Snoopy flips the dog dish up into the air as, Charlie Brown and Violet watch in shock. <br> <br> Snoopy has sat back down and is now spinning the dog dish around on his nose. <br> <br> Snoopy stands back up and flips the dog dish with his back leg. <br> <br> Snoopy sits back down and with a CLOMP! he catches the dog dish in his mouth. Charlie Brown says, \"OH, ALL RIGHT!” <br> <br> Snoopy starts walking carrying his dish in his mouth as Charlie Brown follows him with his arms up in the air he is saying, “You couldn’t just sit there even for a minute, could you? You had to be fiddling around!” <br> <br> “If they want a person to wait patiently for his supper, they should serve soup and a salad!” thinks Snoopy as he eats his super. <br> <br> " dialogue-text,"“My stomach clock just went off!” thinks Snoopy as he lies on top of his doghouse. <br> <br> Snoopy turns over on to his stomach leaning his head over the edge of the roof, looking down at his dog dish as he thinks, “I knew it..

We feed our three cats their evening meal about 5 pm. Around 3, they start complaining. And, if I come home from work early, they really get frantic! Wish they had stomach clocks as reliable as Snoopy’s!
